Perfect Mother's Day

I hope all you mamas had a nice Mother's Day and you got to spend it your way. It had been way too long for me to see some of my family, other than my own mom. I love to entertain and with our new kitchen I couldn't wait to invite family over. Now that some of us are fully vaccinated, I had a good excuse to celebrate Mother's Day and invite some of my aunts and cousins over for brunch. The invite was well received and so was the food. We started with mimosas; I made a few varieties of GF quiches, (is that even a word or is quiche plural?), lemon poppy seed muffins and I made for the first time a Banana Oatmeal Bake which I attached the recipe below. I also had bagels and lox, bacon and fruit. Of course I made way too much food as usual, so we've been eating quiche everyday for breakfast and or lunch.
But let me know if you try the Banana Oatmeal Bake. It's a great breakfast option, or snack or simple dessert.
